[QUOTE="Volodya, post: 2264173, member: 19615"]I seem to have signed up here in 2009, but I [I]think [/I]this is my first post here. No sense rushing into things.

The absolute last one would be Scarpus' very rare quinarius, Crawford 546/8, which I don't actually have (and probably never will, since the few known examples are so dreadful.) Logically I should go a bit further, to Octavian's post-Actium coinage anyway, but since I'm after not just the main types but the Crawford sub-varieties as well, I've already bitten off more than I'm likely to chew in one collecting lifetime.
